removing and resticking rear veiw mirror with rain sensor

well it's a little loose which i think is a combination of harsh bass and stiffer suspension so it's stopping the rain sensor working properly so i need to remove the mirror and stick it back on more securely has anyone done this and what is the best stuff to use to stick it back on ?
